U.S. House Resolution Calls FDA’s Policy on Estriol “Not in the Public Interest”
Dear IACP Member,
This week, we made significant progress in our campaign against FDA’s new policy to “halt” the compounding of BHRT with estriol. Yesterday Representatives Mike Ross (D-Ark.) and Jo Ann Emerson (R-Mo.) introduced a Sense of the Congress resolution that raises direct concerns over this move by FDA.
The resolution, co-sponsored by Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.), Michael Burgess (R-Texas), John Carter (R-Texas), Sam Farr (D-Calif.) and Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), deems FDA's policy “improper” and urges for its reversal. The resolution also affirms that physicians are in the best position to determine which medications are most appropriate for their patients and that FDA should respect this important physician-patient relationship. To see a copy of the resolution and follow its progress, click here.
Representatives Ross and Emerson have consistently demonstrated their support of pharmacy compounding, and this action is just the latest in a series of their efforts to protect patient access to compounded medicines.
We applaud those of you who have written letters to your members of Congress already on this issue… but even if you have already written, WE NEED YOUR HELP AGAIN! If your Senator or Representative is not listed in the list above, please contact them today and urge them to support H. Con. Res. 342 today! The more sponsors, the louder our message becomes: Preserve Patient Access to Estriol!
Again, thank you for all your help so far. If you have any additional questions, please contact IACP at (281) 933-8400.
